Saw a nice red gsi in wrexham last night, which brings me to my question should we have a spotted topic, where members can say if they have seen a nova and ask if anyone on here?

I suggested a forum for it years ago, but then we realised it would be another place to go and make sure you were all being good so binned it off as 'spotteds' are rare as funk.

lolz the days after PV etc should be amusing then as thats about the only time I ever see Nevas except in breakers yards lols

Can't we scrap one of the threads we don't use and replace it with spotted, not a sticky in general.

could it not be a sub forum like the video section?

Why not scrap a thread not used so much, sportzone? 18+?

You seem to be unable to see the difference between a thread and a forum..... Try again

jaygsi
18-04-12, 11:16 PM
Ok remove one of the forums? and replace with spotted, think we got to many anyway.

This exactly, me and Andy had the conversation about being lost on other forums as they're simply too bloody big lol


And I can see the idea of having a spotted thread, but in suggesting that it be 'stickied' you're making the point for us, that it simply wouldn't get enough traffic by itself, to stop it being lost into the depths of the forum it gets put in, and in that sense it wouldn't work, simply because, there aren't that many novas about anymore!

And most Novas that are worth reporting are already known to the forum...

Stick a thread in the appropriate regional section IMO if you really feel the need

Spudly
19-04-12, 09:08 AM
Exactly, have a word with your regional head for one in your area section, tbh anyone posting that they have seen a clean nova in London for example, would mean bugger all to someone in Glasgow lol

can we have a..:gay::gay::gay::gay::gay::gay::gay: section aswell??

jaygsi
19-04-12, 03:00 PM
Think so yes, plus think seen your nova bout month ago by island green, think its yours anyway.

Hence my idea to ditch another one and spotted can take its place, i've seen loads of Nova's they stand out like a saw thumb.

Seriously though, this is the kinda thing that regional forums can be used for :thumb:

TBH i think it's pointless, as i see/know of 5-6 Nova's round here, none of them are on here as there mainly owned by old farts or people who dont care what it there driving as its a crap cheep car to them, and if there on here we already know of them etc, only one guy flashed me in a mk1 lol

swedge
19-04-12, 04:06 PM

VX's and Elises (and other lowtarses) wave to each other... but then they are cool and a little bit rare :)

Volvo owners wave at each other. i got so bored of it when I had my 850 that I ended up waving back with one finger most of the time. All the locals stopped waving after a few weeks of that :)
